@johnnyboy I just wanted to state the source, since I basically just copied the css code, (credit where credit is due :D )

The css I posted above will scroll any text you enter in the config for the helloworld module, no need to alter any code.

Thanks for the css code - I will be away for a couple of days but will test it when I am back … I keep you posted

zkab

I tried the code and it works … but in my case I call ‘helloworld’ twice in ‘config.js’ - one text in ‘upper_third’ and one in ‘bottom bar’.
Is there away to make only the text in ‘bottom bar’ to scroll ?

@zkab you can select all helloworld modules in region bottom with the selector .region.bottom .helloworld

zkab

How do I use .region.bottom .helloworld ?
Can’t find any documentation …

strawberry 3.141

@zkab just replace it in the css rules above where you just used .helloworld e.g.

.region.bottom .helloworld {
  height: 125px;
  width: 600px;
  overflow: hidden;
  position: relative;
}

I don’t get this right - nothing changes.
Here is my custom.css

@zkab you have to replace the second one as well

zkab

Second one ?

strawberry 3.141

@zkab

.region.bottom .helloworld div {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: 130px;

  position: absolute;
  overflow: hidden;

  animation: marquee 10s linear infinite;
}

zkab

OK - I got it more or less working …
There are two things I can’t figure out how to solve:

The upper-case character seem to be chopped of above and lower part of some character (like g) have the same problem.
I have changed ‘height: 130px’ back and forth … no effect.
The rolling text don’t flow smoothly but hacks …

Below is a portion of my helloworld.

.helloworld {
font-size: 75px;
color: #660;
font-family: "Roboto Condensed", sans-serif;
font-style: normal;
}
.region.bottom .helloworld div {
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: 230px;
  position: absolute;
  overflow: hidden;
  animation: marquee 15s linear infinite;
}
@keyframes marquee {
  0% { left: 50%; }
  100% { left: -100%; }
}

@zkab 2. is expected behaviour of a pi as it doesn’t have a lot of rendering power

zkab

Thanks for your support … sad that pi is so weak …
